The pictures really don't look that great, but believe me, this is delicious. And, oh, so, simple!
The prepared pesto, gnocchi, and fresh mozzarella can be purchased at Costco and you'll have enough to make this twice (four times for the fresh mozzarella.) I even got the chicken at Costco- but you can get all of those things at a regular grocery store as well.

Salt and pepper the chicken. Heat the oil in a skillet and cook the chicken until done. Add the chicken broth and cook for a few minutes. Turn off the heat and add the pesto sauce.In a large saucepan, heat water to boiling. Add the gnocchi and cook until they float to the top. It doesn't take very long- about three minutes. While the gnocchi are cooking, cut up the fresh mozzarella into chunks. When the gnocchi are done, pour the water through a strainer, or, using a slotted spoon take out the gnocchi and put them in the skillet. After adding all of the gnocchi, stir together, then add the Mozzarella chunks. Stir in, then let sit for a couple of minutes to let the cheese melt.
